How about NO WE WON’T!
““You can NEVER Separate the Republican Party From the Conservative Movement”
We can’t? The Republican Party already did.”
Exactly.
I am of the opinion that conservatives should become independents. Then, we can peel off disheartened democrats and end up with a viable third party that includes libertarians. Yea, right, that will work.
In the end, we are going to be stuck with the republicans if we want to have our values reinforced by our government. Other than term limits, I don’t see how we can break the old-boy, inside the beltway network of backscratchers.
You want to know what state I'm in?
I'm highly agitated.
Very disgusted.
Angry as H-E-double toothpicks.
Or did you mean where I live?
LOL... Well said.
Love those pre-paid envelopes they provide, and I use them regularly to register my complaints.
Anyone who votes with us over 50% of the time...is welcome. Them’s the rules!
I don't mind the republicans being a 'big tent' party. I do mind when those that are invited under the tent take out saws and begin destroying the poles holding up the tent. Those folks need to seek shelter elsewhere.
all I know is the Republicans stand for no abortion, a stong military and less taxes...and I’ve chosen these as my issues...
The rest of it is harder to guage....and i don’t think every canidate will always support every position I take...but those 3 are essential.
Nothing you said contradicts what I said, from which I deduce you obviously didnt get my point.
“Funny the DemocRATS never saw the need to run a moderate candidate.”
They dont have to. An extreme, ultra-liberal like Obama is called a ‘centrist’ by the liberal media and you get moderates voting for him.
It’s a scam. See my comments in the threads about Rep Gillibrand, the next NY Senator. She is a 95% ADA rated ultra-liberal Democrat. But because she panders on gun issue to her more conservative district, the media calls her a ‘blue dog’ and other nonsense. It’s all ‘marketing’. The liberals do what they can to not look liberal.
Nope. He's right. 36% of the electorate is conservative (fiscal and social both). 30% of voters are self-identified Republicans. 80+% of those Republicans are also conservatives.
The Republican base is a conservative base, and MOST (but not all) conservatives call themselves Republican. Officeholders are not as conservative overall, but most Republicans (eg in COngress) are conservative.
The Republican party has been leaning so far to the left, that the Republicans and the Democrats are practically the same party.
That's phony baloney. Obama funds abortions overseas, closes gitmo and will release suspected terrorists, proposes $2 trillion in deficit spending including billions for ACORN and hundreds of billions for liberal pork, says we need to abolish the Defense of Marriage Act, funds stem cell research, puts a tax cheat to head the IRS and an eco-extremist socialist to be his environmental advisor. AND THAT'S IN ONLY 3 DAYS!
Wake up to reality and see what really IS, instead of what you would like it to be, or what you imagine it to be.
Dittos - the reality is the Democrats are more leftwing and dangerous than you can imagine. If you arent outraged, you are not paying attention.
